Award-winning Student - University of Greenwich

A local student at the University of Greenwich has beaten off strong competition to win a top prize. Jeannine Cassar recently completed her final year and won the award for the Best Overall Student Performance, which is sponsored by the leading specialist recruitment consultancy, Hays Health & Safety.

The purpose of the award is to promote, recognise and reward excellence in the field of health and safety. Hays Health & Safety recently attended a prizegiving ceremony at the University to present a cheque and framed certificate to the proud student.

Karen Nodwell, Regional Director of Hays Health & Safety, says: “A lot of people don’t realise that there is a shortage of qualified health & safety professionals in the UK. This prize is a small step to reward the next generation for their hard work. Not only is it great to support students to pursue a career in health & safety, but we would also encourage students to explore the many employment opportunities that exist locally.”
